Reconciling analyst views


Problem: You are a junior analyst at a well-known mutual fund company (i.e., a buy-side analyst) and are assigned to value, say, the stock of General Electric. You look around at what famous analysts have written and you find one who says that the stock is overpriced at its current price (roughly $42/ share as of October 9, 2007). Another, not surprisingly, thinks that the stock is a strong buy, with a target price of $60. You know you will be asked about these views when you present your results. How might you go about reconciling them?
